Hi what up how long it to goon tell me about it you no
Martin is next Matt Cutts 🙂
If you want to encourage developers to spend more time on SEO, I would say some kind of report like estimated rankings for future based on their improvements.
For example you do 50 changes on your site and wait for few months for SEO to pickup will impact negative to the site owner and developer.
Loving these videos also loving how inadvertently funny Martin can be: "Meta description, NAHH!" – Martin Splitt 2022
Go go martin 👍

You are hearted personality young girl.
When developers understand that SEO is equal parts development and marketing and can get past all the "noise" in the SEO community they would see the benefits to having SEO skills. Developers who have SEO skills will find the SEO skills will move them along the career path faster because they understand both jobs and can communicate in a manner that results in better communication between departments. As mainly a freelance dev I know my knowledge of SEO played a part in getting most of my dev work because marketers and site owners know SEO is the conduit to visibility in Google and other SE which is one of the keys to online success.
Being a SEO professional, I really like to say that Developers must have knowledge about SEO and Google policies and guidelines.
These days no one needs only a website/App they need it in ranking them. So, Developers must have knowledge about Search Engine policies and guideline.
